B.C. Conservatives claim party found voting irregularities in fall election

B.C. Conservative Leader John Rustad is seeking an independent review of the razor-thin fall election, saying his party has uncovered voting irregularities and that the provincial elections agency was careless about ensuring that ballots were cast only by Canadian citizens.Mr. Rustad on Thursday provided no evidence that non-Canadians voted, saying the facts are difficult to establish. Instead, he said the Conservatives want a Supreme Court judge to lead a commission of inquiry into specific allegations of misconduct, and to also examine whether the Elections Act changes made in 2019 went too far in making voting more accessible to British Columbians.
